Mr. Bruce Roberts:
Hello Bruce,  hope you had a pleasant holiday season.  We have our Custom 655 plans now,  just waiting for the holiday stuff to be over with.  I have built the lofting floor so we are poised to get going.

The plans look great, John and I are both very pleased and excited to get moving.   Thank-you Bruce for drawing us the perfect boat,    Daniel Boyko
